Owned by the Italian proprietors of Puglia spa hotel Masseria San Domenico, this sister hotel just a stroll away from Sloane Square boasts lashings of Latin deco drama.
Housed in a couple of refurbished redbrick townhouses that were once home to the (rather less extravagant) Sloane hotel, a discreet Victorian exterior hides San Domenico House’s 15 rooms, including nine suites.
The canopied king-size four-poster beds, richly swagged windows, and antique fixtures-and-fittings (including vintage Louis Vuitton luggage and solemn, turn-of-the-last-century portraits) breathe a heady whiff of Borgia-style decadence.
San Domenico House’s high ceilings, panelled walls and a liberal use of velvet add to the general sense of voluptuousness, whilst spacious bathrooms stocked with Molton Brown toiletries, along with 24 hour room service and a well-equipped fitness room, ensure comfort is catered for too.
Rooms have balconies or terraces with panoramic city views, whilst breakfast, taken in a delightful damask and silk-cluttered drawing room, includes a full English fry up.
A few minutes saunter from world-class museums, chic King’s Road boutiques and restaurants, including Tom Aiken’s Tom’s Kitchen, San Domenico House makes an ideal base for that indulgent city break in London.
Double rooms from £255 per room per night, including breakfast. For further inspiration for London hotels, read our guide to the city’s best boutique hotels.
